Using Prettify on dynamically-generated code - javascript

I'm using Prettify for syntax highlighting, but it doesn't work on dynamically generated code.
I have a form that when submitted generates code and displays it (without refreshing) in <div id="output></div>, but prettify doesn't work on this code, is there any workaround?
Many thanks!

Make sure you recall Prettify once the new code is loaded.
You will need to add a handler to the 'Submit' event. I don't know if you are using a framework or raw JS, so I can't give a code example.

There's a nice solution at http://www.codingthewheel.com/archives/syntax-highlighting-stackoverflow-google-prettify.
In short:
listen for an event: user is inactive for X seconds (after key press)
run the Prettify function prettyPrint()
(if a user starts typing before X seconds do not run Prettify)
.
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#mytextarea').keydown(function() {
$(this).stopTime();
$(this).oneTime(1000, function() {
/* launch the Prettify here */
});
});
});

Why code in console is not work after filter interactions?

Recently, I have seen an amazing issue in a SPA web page. When I write a code using chrome developer console, it works once. When I change filter interactions, that code does not work.
Here is site link: https://www.butlins.com/latest-offers/prices.aspx?start=08/2017
My simple testing code is given below:
Thanks, it works but this code is work twice. Why?
function updateChanges(){
$("a#whatsOnLink").css({"position": "absolute" ,"margin-top": "110px", "margin-left": "-50px"});
$("p.latest-type").append("<p class='someText'><b>2 Adults and 2 Children</b></p>");
$("p.someText").css({"font-size": "12px","margin-top": "10px"});
$("p.latest-type").css({"font-size": "16px"});
$("a.button.bookingEngine.button-red").css({"margin-top": "-10px"});
$('.latest-offer-price').each(function(el){
var data = $(this).text().substring(1);
$(this).text('£'+(data*4));
});
}
$(document).ajaxSuccess(function(){
setTimeout(updateChanges,30)
});
updateChanges();
When I write code in console and press enter, append and calculation is made twice.
Furthermore, I change filter interactions, DOM element flashes with violate colour. I don't know why it is caused.
So, What is the reason for behaviour it ?
Why does DOM element flash with violate colour when filter interaction ?
Have any solution to fix it ?
Try inserting a new <style> tag instead. If it is really an SPA then the rule should stay there after the filters are applied. If the page does a full reload you would need to run new code after each new page loads
let rule ='a.button.bookingEngine.button-red{background-color: blue}'
$('head').append($('<style>', {text:rule}))
The css rules for that page have very specific selectors.
An alternative is to hook into their jQuery ajax and use ajaxSuccess global which will fire after any ajax request succeeds
function updateBtns(){
$("a.button.bookingEngine.button-red").css({"background-color": "blue"})
}
$(document).ajaxSuccess(function(){
setTimeout(updateBtns,30)
});
updateBtns()

Auto Loading HTML in a Div with Javascript

I'm looking to use this code in JS Fiddle http://jsfiddle.net/syE7s/ to load some content into a div.
It's exactly what I need but I want link A to auto load when the page loads. My knowledge of Javascript is fairly minimal so if someone could get it working in jsfiddle I would be very greatful.
I've tried googling everything but I just can't seem to make it work.
It is essential I use the HTML as the links I use parse tokens that use {} to identify them as tokens but it obviously gets confused with Javascript when they are sat together.
enter code here
thanks
Here is a working JS Fiddle, I added a function to load the first link :
function launch() {
var link = $('#A').attr("href");
$('#target').load(link);
}
launch();
http://jsfiddle.net/dhmLjme6/
You can add just one line to your javascript.
It will look like this (line 3):
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#target').load($('.trigger').attr("href"));
$('.trigger').click(function(e){
e.preventDefault();
var link = $(this).attr("href");
$('#target').load(link);
});
});

Can't load HTML code into a div when an image button is clicked

So I am making a website for radio streams and was told I should use Jquery and AJAX to load the HTML files into a div on button click so that I wouldn't have to make the user load a completely new HTML page for each radio stream. But I am a bit lost since I am new to this language and I am not entirely sure what I am doing wrong.
Currently I have a index.html page that loads each individual div and loads all the available radio stations in an iframe linking to an HTML file. In this HTML file there are around 40 buttons that each have to link to their own radio stream. On a button press I want said stream to load into the 'radio player' div for a smooth transition.
After trying to google the problem I was told to do this with the following JavaScript code:
$(function(){
$(".538").click(function(){
$("#div3").load("/includes/about-info.html");
});
});
Since each button is also showing its own image file, I tried to add class="538 to each image source so the JavaScript knows what is targeted. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to work at all and I have no clue what to do. I tried to do this in a separate index.js file which unfortunately didn't work, so I tried to use the JavaScript code in the HTML file itself, and this didn't seem to do the trick either.
TL/DR: trying to load HTML code in a div when an image button is clicked.
Is there perhaps a tutorial for this available? I tried to search the web but couldn't find anything at all. If anyone is able to help me out with this problem I'd love you forever.
I think what's happening is that you're working with dynamic elements. More importantly you should never use numbers to start off either a class name or id.
Unless you post a bit more code it's hard to figure out exactly what you're wanting to do.
If you work with dynamic html the click event won't work, because well you need do dynamically bind the event listener.
For that you can use
$('#dynamicElement').on('click', function() {
$(this).find('#elementYouWantToLoadInto').load('/includes/about-info.html');
});
The above code works if the element is nested in the button. If it's an external element then use.
$('#dynamicElement').on('click',function() {
$('#elementYouWantToLoadInto').load('/includes/abount-info.html');
});
You mentioned that this language is a bit new to you; If you're open to a bit of refactoring:
Your main page should have 2 sections:
<div id='myButtons'>
<input type='radio' data-url='/includes/about-info.html' />
<...>
</div>
<div id='myContent'></div>
<script>
$(function() { //jquery syntax - waits for the page to load before running
$('#myButtons').on('click', 'input', function() { // jquery: any click from an input inside of myButtons will be caught)
var button = $(this),
url = button.data('url'),
content = $('#myContent');
content.load(url);
});
</script>
Jquery: http://api.jquery.com/
you can try this
$('#myButtons').on('click', 'input', function() {
$.get("about-info.html", function(data) {
$("#div3").html(data);
});
});
or
$(document).ready(function(){
$(function(){
$(".radio538").click(function(){
$("#div3").load("/includes/about-info.html");
});
});
})
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#radio1').on('click',function(){
#('#loadradiohere').load('/includes/about-info.html');
});
});
Try that code in your .js file. I am still working for a similar project man.

button in jquery and jscript

I am trying to understand the difference between JQuery and JavaScript.
And apologies if this is a silly question.
This is my attempt at JQuery. On pressing the button the text in <p> should change as requested. I cannot get this to work.
http://jsfiddle.net/QaHda/7/
this is my JavaScript attempt. I cannot get this to work either
http://jsfiddle.net/aLhb8/1/
Can someone please help me with
my jQuery above to get it working.
my jscript above to get it working.
I was trying to get to a point where I could write my JQuery in such a way that it could be written in javascript. Can anyone help me do this?
Thanks
EDIT
Thanks for all the answers/corrections: what I was looking for part 3 was this enter link description here which basically does part 1 using javaScript,I think. In future I should be careful,using left hand pane, to include Jquery library and to make sure jsript is wrapped in head/body
jQuery
You need to include jQuery library to your page by selecting a jQuery version in the first dropdown in the left panel
Demo: Fiddle
JS Sample
The problem is since your function is defined within the onload callback, it was not available in the global scope causing an error saying
Uncaught ReferenceError: myFunction is not defined
The solution is to add the script to the body elements, instead of inside the onload callback by selecting No Wrap - in <body> in the second dropdown in the left panel
function myFunction()
{
alert("Hello World!");
}
Demo: Fiddle
jQuery is library of javascript function and you need to add jquery file in html file that y jquery function was not working and for javacript function you need to change the setting in jfiddele left to no-wrap in head
http://jsfiddle.net/aLhb8/1/
http://jsfiddle.net/hushme/QaHda/10/
here is code
$("button").on("click", function () {
$("p").text("this text will now appear!!")
});
If you have internet connection, This should work
<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
$(document).ready(function() {
$('button').click(function() {
alert("This is a simple alert message");
});
});
But if don't then just download the jquery framework and include into your page
Hope it helps and anyway jquery is a framework of javascript, so they are both or they are the same. Don't confuse yourself.
Here is a JavaScript version - http://jsfiddle.net/aLhb8/4/
JavaScript
var myButton = document.getElementById('myButton');
myButton.addEventListener('click', function(){
alert(myButton.textContent);
});
Check this link out if you want to start learning more about JavaScript - http://javascriptissexy.com/how-to-learn-javascript-properly/
For the pure JS code, on the top left panel, select 'No wrap - in body'. This will make your code run without a problem.
In the jQuery code, make sure you've selected the jQuery library, as opposed to pure JS. You hadn't selected this before, so your code was invalid.

How can I make Jquery code work in IE

I have a script for display of Google suggestions. The script also allows to come down in the suggested list using the arrow keys. When you do so the "text" is filled within the input field. The code for this is:
$("#inp").live("keyup", function(e) {
var search_terms = $("li.current").text();
if(e.keyCode==40)
{
$("#inp").val(search_terms);
}
if(e.keyCode==38)
{
$("#inp").val(search_terms);
}
});
The complete script is over here: jsbin
The problem is that IE8 does not support "oninput" so first of all please test this in IE and replace "oninput" with "onpropertychange" which is an IE only event (so it seems) After doing that you will notice that the script does not respond proper when coming down in the suggestion list. However if you remove the above code than all works very well. But I really need the above code to function in IE, so what should I change in order to make it work properly?
update jquery to latest version :P
